K-6 MERIT AWARDS IMPLEMENTATION:
- The Principal has the overall responsibility to implement this policy and will assign the responsibility of coordinating awards to teachers and the Assistant Principal.
- Awards will be given out at Assembly each Friday during the school term according to the awards weekly schedule unless there are extenuating circumstances such as a public holiday, whole school event (causing cancellation of assembly) or a class is on an event such as school camp or an excursion.
- Awards will be presented by the school’s Student Leaders and Assistant Principal and Principal who organise and present assembly each week.
- Teachers must ensure they have their awards completed each Thursday afternoon to allow enough time for assembly preparation.
- Awards are based on merit and achievement not on equality or encouragement. This is important so that appropriate recognition is awarded to students who display excellence in all school life.
